The holiday season embodies the spirit of giving, a time to spread joy and warmth to those in need. At The NOMORE Foundation, our annual Gathering Joy initiative embodies this ethos by bringing smiles and hope to families across Tampa Bay. As we gear up for another year of giving, we reflect on the profound impact that this outreach has had on the community.

From the very start, Gathering Joy has been about more than just gifts. It’s about fostering a sense of belonging, of solidarity, and of love within our community. The stories we’ve encountered along this heartwarming journey are testaments to the power of collective generosity.

From families who confided that the presents provided by Gathering Joy would be the only ones under their tree, to caregivers overwhelmed with tears of relief and joy, the impact is immeasurable. Their heartfelt expressions of gratitude remind us why initiatives like this matter so much.

Our incredible NOMORE Team, the dedicated ministry partners, and the unsung heroes who volunteered their time and resources – this success story wouldn’t be possible without your unwavering support. Your commitment to making a difference is the driving force behind our ability to spread joy to those who need it most.

This year, the Imagine School at Land O’ Lakes and every compassionate individual who chose to Give, Gather & Go this Christmas season, have helped us extend our reach to nearly 700 children and families. It’s through your generosity that we can make a tangible difference in the lives of so many. To find out how you can get involved, visit https://declarenomore.com/joy today!

As we come together in this season of giving, let us remember the true meaning of these efforts. It’s not merely about the number of gifts wrapped or the smiles captured in photographs; it’s about the shared belief that we can create positive change. Together, we stand united in our declaration: NOMORE will we allow families to feel forgotten or without hope.

As we wrap presents, load vehicles with care packages, and spread cheer, we’re not just delivering gifts; we’re delivering hope, love, and a sense of community to those who need it most.

So, from the bottom of our hearts, to everyone who has played a role in making Gathering Joy a reality, we extend our sincerest gratitude. Your kindness, your compassion, and your commitment to sharing the love of Jesus with others are the true magic of this season.

Thank you for being a part of writing this story filled with joy. Together, we declare NOMORE.
